Default Hi all, i'm new

I'm new to subaru's but I have always wanted one, mainly just for that growling engine sound.

Which Impreza models have that growl sound if a sports exhaust is fitted? e.g. would a 1999 2.0 litre Impreza GL estate be able to make that sound?

Just wondering which models make that sound so can look them up in the future

if you mean the 'burble' all cars with unequal length headers (do a search) so yes the sport would have it to a degree.
